DRink plenty of water and talk to your doctor.

At Sally's Beauty Supplies there is a cream called HEMP.it is awesome may be a little pricy but it woeks wonders, you should be able to get it at any beauty supply store!

you could try going to some websites for homeremedies they have some pretty good ones. I know using mayonnaise on your hair is a natural condioner and will make your hair shiny. Also I heard vinegar rinses are good for an itchy scalp. Surf the net I am sure you will find something to help you out, if medications aren't working. Good Luck

I've had great luck with using Triamcinolone Acetonide cream in prescription form, but it takes 4 weeks to get maximum effect. Keep working with a dermatologist, if you can.

We use..a 450g base cream (purchase at a pharmacy)(we have wellskin base galxal but any base cream will do) and a 100g tube of uremol 20 cream (also found at pharmacy)mixed into it for daily use. If your skin is extreamly dry use the uremol 20 cream by itself for 1-2 weeks then switch to daily formula.
My son has severely dry skin and this is finally what works for him! AND the bonus is there are no steroids as there are in the prescription creams.
good luck.
